Imagine Rocket League, but the cars are Lúcios, and you get the idea. You have to boop your way through the stadium and push the ball with your gun (or fist), and score a goal against the enemy team with the gigantic ball. It's a nice change of pace, being rather different compared to most game mo
Overwatch 2, however, is facing a unique issue, where the queue times for DPS and Tank are over ten minutes , but only around two minutes if you pick Support. It seems that nobody wants to help their team out from the sideli
As for new players, they will have to complete a certain amount of games to unlock all the Heroes. The table below carries all the information on how to unlock all heroes. It also contains information on how to unlock the three new heroes in Overwatc
"Do not let your domain name children play Overwatch 2," said a Twitter user who came across this. "My 12 year old son found custom games within it, one called 'Sexual Harassment' and one game that simulated the female characters being raped. Thankfully my son realized it was bad, closed the game, and told me. Don't pl
Playing support in Overwatch is like crawling through mousetraps to help your little brother up after he’s fallen, only for him to kick you in the face and call you a twat. It’s a thankless job, no matter how much you heal, and if you’re playing with randoms, you’ll often be hung out to dry in front of an ulting Moira and a hook-happy Roadhog. I swore off the role a couple of years ago, but Kiriko has roped me right back in, angry chat messages and thanks-spamming teammates be dam
Support and DPS players now slip into the role of tank, whether consciously or not. Brigitte often helps with pushing by using her much-weaker shield when there’s an offensive tank in play, while Lucio relies on his ultimate to essentially turn everyone into a tank, making that the way to push in losing games. There’s clearly a void that people are scrambling to fill, and it’s only made Overwatch even less intuitive to get into. New tanks now have to play the role completely solo, leaving little room for error, and if they do fail, it’s up to the DPS and support to try and fill their sh
There's always an issue that comes before microtransactions for multiplayer games, and it's one that almost every one of them suffers from – long queue times to get into games. While in the best of cases, you might not get into a game on the day it launches. Sometimes these issues can go on for months, and may require server upgra
That said, this event offers amazing PvE modes, more elaborate than the likes of Halloween Terror, and with quite intense levels of difficulty, requiring good teamwork. Add the fact you have a small selection of heroes on the default mode, and you've got yourself a good challenge ah
Patches are here to stay in gaming, and they are important for fixing huge errors, balancing live-service games, and removing online exploits being constantly abused. They also help games ship on time then get a little polish here, a little spit shine there later on. But it’s increasingly obvious that games are afraid to be imperfect, and that risks making them bor
It comes with its own risks though. If you’ve played Overwatch 2 at all, you know Moira is constantly played as a DPS . They shred through enemies, rush off to get kills, and rarely come back to help the team, leaving the job to rest on one support’s shoulders. I’m busy scrambling to hit the mute button while I keep a charging Reinhardt alive as he plummets into the entire enemy team, so my shoulders are more than strained. But Kiriko hasn’t ended up like Moira - at least, not yet. The ease of being able to jump between damage and healing is similar there, but the DPS doesn’t outclass the healing to such an extent that it’s worth dropping altogether. The two are well-balanced, meaning you can easily flit between keeping D.Va alive and taking out a cheeky Widowmaker perched in the dista
As the first seasonal event released for Overwatch, Summer Games was the benchmark created on what to even expect from such events, featuring many exclusive skins and a unique game mode for itself. Most skins here are great as well, and it has a very fun mode called Lúcio Ball. The Summer Games tend to happen in August, sometimes starting at the end of J
In the run-up to the Resident Evil 4 remake, fans have been sharing their favourite Easter Eggs online. The game was full of strange little quirks, both accidental and deliberate. After the mine cart section, there’s a skull which, when interacted with, will give you piles and piles of money. Some claim these are the takings from the enemies slain in the aforementioned cart level, others that the money was there regardless. I’m not sure if it will be back in the remake, but I’m leaning towards ‘no’ - it just seems a bit too silly for games these days to keep
Having one tank in Overwatch has made support a complete nightmare, and it’s made some tanks completely redundant in certain modes. I’ve been playing a lot more Mercy, finding it helpful on defense especially as I flutter from teammate to teammate, frantically keeping them alive while they fend off the enemy’s push. But all it takes to stop that is a Zarya toggling her shield, walking right through all of them, killing me, and then strutting back to safety. The lone tank is busy holding the line and the DPS are busy killing the enem
